Lysostaphin in treatment of neonatal Staphylococcus aureus infection.

Okunola Oluola1, Lingkun Kong, Mindy Fein, Leonard E Weisman.   

Abstract

This study describes lysostaphin's effect against methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus in suckling rats. Standard techniques determined minimal inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy. The numbers of surviving rats after vancomycin, oxacillin, and lysostaphin treatment were comparable and were different from that of controls (P < 0.00001). Lysostaphin appears effective in the treatment of neonatal S. aureus infection.
